R.E.M., Warner Bros. Records, and Cinema Purgatorio present "This Is Not A Theatrical Release," limited sneak preview screenings of the upcoming R.E.M. un-concert documentary "This Is Not A Show."

In their acclaimed 2007 "working rehearsals" in Dublin, R.E.M. set up camp at the venerable Olympia Theatre in Irelands capital city and tested new material over five nights before passionate, capacity crowds.

Music at the show was produced by Dublin native Jacknife Lee who, along with R.E.M., co-produced Accelerate, the album which emerged from these shows. Live At The Olympia gives fans an opportunity to hear those songs at their earliest stages of development. In addition to the new material, the band also served up several songs from across their nearly thirty year career.
